Planting and Cultivating Tobacco.

On this subject the american Agyi-
fuhu,1st for July, has the following:
After the field has been plowed deep,
the soil made fine, smooth and level, and
the lower leaves of the plants are about
the size of tablespoon, is the time
for planting. In pulling the plants
from the beds, be careful not to bruse
the buds or heart.
The roots should be about two inches
long; if they are longer, they should
be pinched off, else they will double
up in setting. If the ground is moist,
no more care is required than is neces-
sary in transplanting cabbages. In a
dry season, however, the plants have
to lie "watered out" This is done by
making hole in the center OF the hill,
four inches deep; this is filled with
water, the plant set in the mud, and
dry soil drawn over the mud to prevent
baking. A single stuck in the ground
at an angle on the south side of the
plant serves as an excellent protection
against the sun. AS soon as the plants
are large enough, so that the rows can
he readily seen, stir the ground with a
fine-toothed cultivator As the plants
grow, use cultivator with larger teeth
or shovels, until the plants have at
tanned a height Of eighteen inches.
When the plants are two feet high, the
use of the cultivator should be discon-
tinued, and the hoe applied instead.
\ hoe should be used with a shufling
motion, backwards and forwards, sti, :
ring up fresh soil, carefully drawing all
weeds into the middle, between the
rows, pulverizing the soil around the
plants, and drawing up around them
plenty Of moist, mellow soil
When one is hoeing, it is best to
look for tobacco worms, which are al
ways found on the under side of the
leaves, and the presence ofwhich is in
dicated by the fresh raw edges of the
leaves, and after few days by their
scared and yellow appearance.

Woman's Lot.
lal)OrS.

In a general way it is quite in COM
mon with mans, yet there are points
where each has a separate sphere.
United, they are mutually dependent;
separated, they are each largely indie
pendent. All men have to face the
world and earn living, and not in
frequently women find themselves OBJ
liged to do no less. Men receive a
special preparation for such work;
shall women be treated with like con-
sderation? To send anyone forth to
win bread, unqualified, is cruel. A
boy or girl that is we'll equipped to
meet the future, will look upon life
more wisely, free from decisions and
false ideas, and will be in the best pos
sible condition to appropriate any
good luck that might happen along.
When forced by circumstances into
the stern duties Of life, the keenest
sufferers among women are those who
have grown up in homes Of luxury
1t is criminal for parents to carefully
provide for the boys, and allow thei,
daughters to grow into maturity with,
out laying foundation on which they
can build a livelihood, should circum
stances demand it. BY understanding
the possibilities of the future, a sense
of responsibility is cultivated and
wisdom alone will dictate a prepare
ton. This preparation gives a dig
nifty and poise to character thai
nothing else can equal. She must be
conscious of possessing an education
that can be turned into money i
necessary. This feeling places her a
great advantage in every situation
When woman sees life from the same
standpoint as man, her lot will be i'm
mensely improved.

HELPING HERSELF.

An Americanized Englishwoman Who
Skinned an Alligator.
An Englishwoman, now living on
her farm near OpeIousas, heard some
time ago that in a ditch in her field
was a good-sized alligator. Not bit
distressed was she, but quite delighted,
and anxious to possess its skin. Ac-
cordingly she had it captured and
killed, but from superstition or other
silly motive not q man on the place
was willing to do the SHINING Final
~, the lady prevailed over the objec-
tons of one, but he set about the task
SO awkwardly that she dismissed him
and undertook it herself. With
Ratchet and knife she and her little
ten-year-old daughter, actually re-
moved the skin entire. 1t was hard
work, especially to her who knew
nothing of such things, had never seen
an alligator skinned, and had little
idea of how to accomplish it. But &C.
compllsh it she did, and now, cured
and Strengthened, her treasure hangs
in the parlor, an honored trophy, not
beautiful, but rare, alongside of her fam
cy etagere and elegant piano. She points
to it with pride and says triumphantly:
'There are not many of my country
women who can say, as can, i have
skinned an alligator. .
This same lady has travelled extern.
sively through Europe and North
America, but heartily declares that
there is mo place like home'-viz.,
her present home on the prairie She
labors with her own hands toward its
Improvement She painted her floors,
papered her walls, hung up bright En-
glish pictures in homemade frames Of
her own continuing. and turned her
hand to any bit of carpentering, cab
inet-making, plumbing, etc., needed
in the house. She has laid out garden
beds, constructed brick walks, and
made her little parterre, with it's roses,
portulaccas, pansies, EGGPLANT, candy
tuft and mign onette-a thing''of JOY and
beauty. She digs and hoes, fertilizes,
weeds, plants in propria persona, and
draws the line only at blowing and
fencing.-N. o. Pic0yune.
